Rating 4 out of 5
Teachers are amazing. They do their best to get you prepared, and they do their job well. However, the students are not accepting at all. I am currently a student, and I am both transgender and I am not straight. These students are transphobic, hom*ophobic, and racist jokes are quite normal here. The teachers try their best, but they could try much better with these issues. I would say this review is mostly high because of nostalgia, and I am in the 80th percentile in writing. I would thank that mostly to my language arts teacher.
The art club and other clubs that aren’t sports related barely get any attention. Both the students and teachers seem to focus on sports, and to put it bluntly, it sucks. However, that may be a plus if you enjoy sports.
I assume if you go here, you don’t have a choice. It is a readily available public school. Despite my warnings, this is a nice school if you don’t have social anxiety like me

The teachers are mostly really nice. Most people get along and they try there best to get you ready for high school.
I wouldn't have wanted to go anywhere else.
